TOO FAR FROM SHORE

It doesn’t feel the way it was
Not as it was before
You’ve drifted with the current stream
You’re way too far from shore. 

Unable to reach out to you
I tried, but you’re long gone
Can’t get back to where we were
We waited way too long.

You didn’t try to swim, to float
You threw caution to the wind
Turned your back , sailed away
You won’t be back again. 

The loneliness, the heartache
Feeling sorry for myself
Missing you, longing for
The love I thought you felt.
